롤드컵 우승을 차지한 삼성 갤럭시가 주전 대부분과 재계약을 완료했다.

20일 오후 삼성 갤럭시는 공식 페이스북을 통해 2018년 계약에 대해 알렸다. 이 게시물에서 삼성은 '큐베' 이성진, '앰비션' 강찬용, '크라운' 이민호, '룰러' 박재혁, '코어장전' 조용인, '하루' 강민승과 재계약을 완료했다고 말했다. 다만 '레이스' 권지민과 '스티치' 이승주 두 선수는 거취에 대해 아직 심사숙고 중인 것으로 알려졌다.

2014년 롤드컵 우승 이후 모든 선수가 팀을 떠나며 다시 팀을 재구성한 삼성 갤럭시는 3년 만에 다시 롤드컵 우승을 차지하는 성과를 거뒀다. 이어 이번 계약으로 내년 시즌에도 다시 롤드컵 우승권 전력을 보유한 팀으로 남게 됐다.

Hello fans, this is Samsung GALAXY Game team. Here we present the 2018 LoL team players. Samsung GALAXY team has concluded a contract with Sungjin Lee(Cuvee), Chanyong Kang(Ambition), Minho Lee(Crown), Jaehyuk Park(Ruler) and Yongin Cho(Corejj). Regarding the player Jimin Kwon(Wraith) and Seungjoo Lee(Stitch), we are still considering about their position. We will anounce the precise news soon. We hope to all our fans to cheer us and love us in 2018 too. Thank you.


I am glad SSG will continue into the next year, they don't have any real glaring weaknesses so no need for changes. And it looks like the CN exodus is finally done, they seem to be happy with their own domestic pool plus improts that they nuture themselves.

On the other hand, Pray and Gorilla are apparently free agents. RIP LZ, you were insane while you lasted. I was really hoping we'd get to see another season of the big 4 teams, but I guess it was not meant to be.

It's pretty unreal for SSG to keep the team together after another year of making worlds finals. Compliments to their management I guess.

I really wonder what SKT and KT will do this year. Nothing has been publishied about those teams, right? Or did I miss something?

Nothing official as far as I know but the Kespa cup is going on right now so I imagine both teams are in it. Although SKT is notorious for not using their 'real' roster during Kespa cups

The only reason I know it is because the MVP facebook page said they won their first round. I can't find any more information on it, although admittedly I didn't look too hard

I saw the same on the liquipedia page. Plus some unknown teams having some results. But judging from mvp's win, I don't think the earlier rounds are really worth watching, apart from potential upsets.

A lot of juicy things in that article. C9 picking up a fresh NA top lane means they could import elsewhere if someone retires (likely to be Sneaky if anyone). Would be kind of weird for C9 to just lose Impact and not make a power play elsewhere.

Also Impact getting an offer to return to SKT is pretty spicy too. TLs final roster will be very interesting. I feel for Lourlo though, he was the only one without a sub throughout the mess of season 7 and you could tell the guy was trying his hardest.

I also assume TL is going to start selling some of the contracts they have or players are gonna leave. There's a zero percent chance Inori gets to play in the LCS if he's behind RO, Dardoch, AND Xmithe. Hell there's really no reason to have all three of them either, unless a sub on the 'main team' can't play for the 'challenger' squad

Wtfffff, that feel when SKT makes a bid for Impact but TL is the one who takes him home. This is hilarious...

Probably doesn't want to deal with Korean scene, being second fiddle to Faker, and makes more money in NA.

In regards to that ESPN article Licorice is really good, a lot of upside but you never know how that will pan out in the LCS.

But I also agree in that I would be pretty surprised if c9 doesn't find a way to use both import slots

Its not like SKT is known for lucrative deals, plus he almost 100% would have to split time with a sub, because SKT does not want to be trapped into a position where they have 2014 Impact with no replacement.

pretty sure the two most important factors to denying that offer was
1) pressure of SKT (kkoma belt and practice times) + korean fans
2) money

hes already been there, done that so trophy chasing isnt very relevant for him unlike huni/peanut

Well, Teamliquid already destroyed one former world champion's career, might as well make it two. I expect Impact to be playing jungle in like two months before he swaps to support and brings in a "friend" to play toplane or something else egregiously stupid while Riot sits and watches without fining the team into oblivion.

Yeah, pretty much this. I initially thought an orga like TL shouldn't be able to challenge an orga like SKT in pay but apparently KR player salary is still rather abysmal.

That said, it says a lot about how Impact would rather stay in NA (TL in particularly) than go back home, back to his former team, which is still likely better than any NA team, in regards to winning.
